What are the 3 types of elasticity?

Solution

The three 3 types of elasticity:

  1. Young's modulus of elasticity: Within the elastic limit, the ratio of longitudinal stress and longitudinal strain is called Young’s modulus of elasticity.
    Young'smodulus=LongitudinalstressLongitudinalstrain
  2. Bulk modulus: Within the elastic limit, the ratio of the volume stress and the volume strain is called the bulk modulus of elasticity.
    Bulkmodulus=VolumestressVolumestrain
  3. Rigidity modulus: The ratio of shearing stress to shearing strain is called rigidity modulus.
    Rigiditymodulus=shearingstressshearingstrain
